MOD Filipina Vol. 23 No. 1025, April 26, 1991
On the cover: Sarah-Ingrid Aurelia Reyes Brodett

The features article of MOD Filipina April 26, 1991 issue, “The Battle of Volcanoes” (pp. 12-13), I wrote barely a month-and-a-half before the massive eruption of Mount Pinatubo. It was a comparison between the destructive history of Taal and the possible awesome destructive power that Mount Pinatubo could unleash.

“The mountains melt like wax at the presence of the LORD, at the presence of the LORD of the whole earth. The heavens declare His righteousness, and all the people see His glory.” – The Book of Psalms 97:5-6, Holy Bible, The New King James Version.
